On behalf of all of the staff at Highland Shores Children's Aid we thank the Trenton Golden Hawks, the Picton Pirates, the Wellington Dukes, the Cobourg Cougars and the Port Hope Panthers for their continued support of Child Abuse Prevention Month and our "Go Purple" hockey games. One of the highlights is the smile on the face of the youth in care who gets to drop the puck at each game! Thanks so much for supporting this important month and helping us to spread the message that we all can play a part in keeping kids safe and well-cared for!
